If selecting a desktop, you may also want to include and use a third party NIC in an expansion slot instead of the onboard Ethernet.
|
||||||
|
This is often not an option in laptops with manufacturer firmware due to the use of NIC whitelists, but you can use a USB based ethernet or wifi adapter instead with either desktop or laptop.

This will help avoid overt network communications from onboard management.
